I put on my winters one year then got too lazy to swap them out. If they work on winter roads they work well enough on summer roads lmao

PS "all season" tires don't do shit compared to winters. Our road conditions are often pretty bullshit though with like partial melts into re-freezes all the time etc.

RWD in the snow isn't too bad. You just gotta be careful with your throttle and if the back slips out never press the brakes. Hills are kinda tough sometimes if you are in the wrong gear though.

By all season you mean non-studded winter tyres? Modern tyres have a surprising amount of grip in worse conditions so it's actually not that bad if you're a decent driver (just drive safe). It depends on the actual conditions of course, non-studded tyres work better in loose snow, or snowy roads in general while studded ones are obviously better for icy and packed snow. Studded tyres are all around better of course in a proper winter climate. Oh and the safety features of your car matter too.

Not using winter tyres at all sounds a bit moronic though so I wouldn't recommend.

Tire manufacturers try to sell us 3 divisions of tires: "Regular" or summer tires, "All season" tires (supposedly better with snow but not actually useful at -20) and "Winter" tires (fairly self-evident).

If you fuck up with summer tires here, there's a high probability that no insurance will pay you anything.

So unnecessarily risky.

Anyhow I beat my first divine beast in BOTW, only at the tenth attempt or so. Man did I suck yesterday. + Show Spoiler +
The elephant it was.

It was the arrow that killed the enemy which also broke my last bow. A second before I'd have died to the energy beam. Man that was close.

Game is good. Very good. Lots of fun.

Those bosses are pretty rough if you haven't built up a lot of hearts or upgraded your armor.

I had 3 hearts and upgraded once. I think it's called hylian armour.

Best looking armor in the game, IMO.

Tips below, or you can just explore on your own and figure stuff out. But these are not major tips.

+ Show Spoiler +
So you need to go to the village with the old lady that gave you the blue tunic. There is an old dude painter dude who will ask for your help. Its an easy task and will help you with armor and other things.

Plus the old painter dude is cool. Always check you what he is painting. You will meet him at all the stables.

The painter's painting? They change all the time and provide light suggestions on where you should go next.

Ok, this new Overwatch hero is specifically designed to make me want to return to Overwatch. This is almost as P6 targeted as the Vanguard class in Mass Effect.

Cars are expensive, I'm kinda not sure if I wanna get one when I move out. I'll likely just take the van with me, but I'm not sure how much I'd use it.

Dad can't drive anymore because of eye problems, so the van's practically just my car now.

After I get rid of the van (breaks down, etc) I'd probably be in a better place to say. Guys who live in big cities: what do you use your cars for, typically? And could you feasibly take public transit everywhere? If I go to a big city, it'd be either Ottawa or Toronto. Any farther than that, and I'll worry about it then.

Yeah, good tires are not cheap.I had to replace my tires recently as well since I had tire bubbles form from all the potholes.

Bless costco's free replacements

I live around NYC but use my car for mainly autocross/track work on the weekends. Groceries if I am feeling lazy but finding a parking spot usually takes longer than just walking. Cars are indispensable when it comes to freedom imo but I am a bit biased since I like cars and probably spend more than the average consumer. I will say though, having a car in high school/college was super awesome.
